For those of you buried in snow right now, here’s a 5″ x 7″ (A7) or 3 1/2″ x 4 7/8″ (A4) summer template to get you in the mood for the warmer weather that will inevitably arrive. The dappled sunshine and cheerful flowers will inspire you to start planning your next outdoor party and with any luck, get you out of the winter doldrums.

You can use this design for nearly any kind of party: anniversary, housewarming, retirement, garden, birthday, engagement or even weddings and commitment ceremonies. Because it’s a blank template, you can also use it printed at a smaller size for place cards or at full size for thank you cards, after the party. You could even position a circle punch over the flowers and create cupcake toppers or party circles that can be scattered on the table, hung from favor bags or used as other types of party decorations. It’s a versatile go-to design for parties from April to September!

If you like pastels but want something a little more linear and classic, I also have an assortment of blank pastel invite templates. And since you’re thinking about summer, you might also be interested in my brightly colored beach party announcements for birthdays, BBQs, luaus and general beach get-togethers. The page with the pastel designs also has wedding and commitment ceremony wording examples, in case you need help with getting the message just right. There are also instructions for positioning the text over your artwork in Microsoft Word. You can access that page by clicking the button below:
